A CLASSIC
IS BORN

Way back when, our Avocado, Tomato & Sprouts sandwich was using a magical egg-free mayo that made it taste amazing. One day we learned that the supplier of this mayo was a cheat! They were peeling off labels and relabeling regular ol’ mayo as egg-free, sugar-free, preservative-free “vegetarian mayo.” We couldn’t believe it, and overnight our sandwiches were left high and dry.

We wanted that sandwich back, so one of our founders, Bob, set out to make a truly egg-free mayo. After unsuccessfully testing sample after sample, Bob almost gave up until he had an idea in a dream. The next day Vegenaise was born! It wasn’t yet perfect, but after many batches, we perfected our recipe. Once news spread that a real egg-free mayo existed, Follow Your Heart customers began to ask for some to take home. It wasn’t long before we outgrew our tiny café kitchen and had to find a place to make enough Vegenaise to meet the growing demand, and Earth Island was born.

CONTINUING OUR JOURNEY

From our early days as a soup and sandwich counter to our now internationally available brand of plant-based foods, Follow Your Heart has always led the way in innovating great-tasting and better-for-you foods while striving to make the world a more compassionate and delicious place.

We now make a full range of award-winning products like Vegenaise, the original and #1 vegan mayo, as well as a variety of dairy alternatives including Vegan Cheeses, fresh Salad Dressings, and breakfast staples like dairy-free Yogurts, VeganEgg, and our new Rocket Cakes.

With endless new products on the horizon and positive advances in food and sustainable technology, we are excited to venture into the delicious unknown.
